There's an old country western song with the catchy
title of "Older Women Make Better Lovers." That may
appeal to older women if you could ever find one. I tried to
run a survey, but all I ever got in response to my initial
question — "Are you an older woman?" was
"Watch your mouth, buddy!" |

At the next convention of the American Association
of Retired People, I am going to propose we adopt a secret
handshake. Pulling my membership card from the crowded pockets
in my billfold at busy airports and hotels to prove such an
easy case is ridiculous. Just a slight variation of the Boy
Scout's handshake would be enough to open the doorways of the
world to AARP. |

You can tell times are tough when economists, writers and
Extension agents start writing articles on how you should
pinch your pennies. |

tends to stand out from the crowd. At six feet and seven
inches tall, the soon-to-be freshman at Texas A&M
University may be mistaken for a basketball recruit. But the
"BB" in this young man's life will likely always
stand for "Bobwhite Brigade." I believe his tenure
at the Brigades will help him negotiate the full court presses
of life. And I dare say he will confront his challengers with
a Michael Jordan smile. Give him four or five years, and I'd
hate to go one-on-one with him for a job. |

One reader was concerned about learning how to use his
camera with his computer. This is one area that has received a
lot of attention from software companies in the last couple of
years. |

Teacher…many are certified but few are qualified. After
23 years of formal education I can verify the veracity of that
statement. In addition, I have attended too many workshops and
seminars on subjects ranging from the equine to the ethical
not to recognize a good teacher when I am graced by his or her
gift. I guess in the many years of education I have received I
have had fewer than 10 "qualified" teachers. |
